oversize stem Time RTM

Post by dwoolery »

Will your new rechargeable wireless mount be able to mount on my oversize Time stem? Currently I have to use the handle bar mount for my wireless base as your stem mount base will not accomodate the large diameter of my Time stem. I also use an Edge 705 which is currently mounted on the opposite side of the stem from where the iAero is mounted. What would be your ideal configuration under this scenario?

Are you using this with a TIME Safe+ fork , or just a normal fork. The TIME fork uses a special threaded headset so it does not have a compression bung or star nut, so there is no way to screw the new wireless mount into the top of the fork. I suspect you can possibly install a compression bung carefully into the fork for this purpose, would depend on the internal diameter, I will check mine when I get home. Check this thread for pictures of the new mount and you will understand how it attaches. http://www.ibikeforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=1893

Here are the pics you requested. Did not notice the attachments tab at the bottom of this page until just now. To restate my question:
Will the rechargable mount fit on my large diameter stem and/or steering tube?
Do you have a larger diameter stem mounting base for the conventional mount?
knowing that I use the E705 and the iAero together, do you have an ideal solution that fits my bike?

Yes, I do have a TIME Safe+ fork with no bolt visible from the top side of the carbon cap. Is there any other way of mounting this new rechargable base, or are there other option styles becoming available in the future?

You won't be able to mount on the Time stem using the mount kits available for the iBike. What you can do is get one of these or something similar, as this will give you a bolt thread to screw the new wireless mount into.

For the original iBike wireless mount I made my own adaptor for the Time Ulteam Stem. See link to this thread for detailed instructions and pics
